Trump had the best performance among minority voters of any President in recent memory. And then:

One token black cabinet member - in HUD of course, just like last time
Top priority is deporting Hispanics specifically
Silences and discussion of diversity/inclusion in federal agencies on threat of firing
Eliminates ability to do anything about discrimination
Approves ethnic cleansing of Gaza
Allies closely with South African who blamed LA wildfires on black firefighters and Boeing's door problems on racial diversity

I think we need to be unafraid to say the truth. Trump is definitely, obviously racist. Yes, people do get accused of being racist unfairly. Trump is not one of them.
